ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS JUG 2 9 2025
TOWN OF SOUTHOLD
Tel. (631) 765-1809 0U
FINDINGS, DELIBERATIONS AND DETERMINATION
MEETING OF JULY 24,2025
ZBA FILE: #8024
NAME OF APPLICANT: Tamar Mebonia
PROPERTY LOCATION: 53750 County Road 48, Southold, SCTM No.1000-52-2-17
SEQE DETERMINATION: The Zoning Board of Appeals has visited the property under consideration in this
application and determines that this review falls under the Type II category of the State's List of Actions, without
further steps under SEQRA.
Sf F OLK COUNTY ADMfNIS"1 RATIVE CODE: This application was not required to be referred to the Suffolk
County Department of Planning under the Suffolk County Administrative Code Sections A 14-14 to 23.
LWRP DET R rIINATION: The relief, permit, or interpretation requested in this application is listed under the
Minor Actions exempt list and is not subject to review under Chapter 268.
PROPERTY FACT S/DE CRIPTION: The subject nonconforming 4,500 square foot property is located in the
Residential R-40 Zoning District. The northerly property line measures 50.00 feet and is adjacent to County Road
48, the easterly property line measures 90.18 feet, the southerly property line measures 50.00 feet and the westerly
property line measures 90.18 feet and is adjacent to Beverly Road which is a private 20 foot wide road. The parcel
is improved with a one-story frame dwelling with a raised wood deck over a concrete patio adjacent to Beverly Road.
The dwelling is on a corner lot surrounded by three roads and having three front yards as shown on the survey map
prepared by Nathan Taft Corwin III, LS and last revised April 16, 2025.
BASIS OF APPLICATION: Request for Variances from Article XXIII, Sections 280-124 and.the Building
Inspector's May 6, 2025, amended May 0, 2025 Notice of Disapproval based on an application for a permit to
legalize an"as built"deck addition to an existing single-family dwelling: at: 1)less than the code required minimum
secondary front yard setback of 20 feet,2) more than the code permitted maximum lot coverage of 20%; located at
53750 County Road 48, Southold, NY. SCTM No. 100-52-2-17.
RELIEF REQ ESTE - The applicant requests variances to legalize an"as built''deck addition to an existing single-
family dwelling.The"as built"construction,on this nonconforming 4,500 square foot lot located in the R-40 Zoning
District:is not permitted pursuant to Art-,Cie XX II, Section 280-124,which states that lots measuring less than 20,000
square feet in total size require a secondary front yard setback of 20 feet and the maximum lot coverage of 20%. The
secondary front yard setback (Beverly Road) is at .7 feet and the lot coverage is at 38.7%.
ADDITIONALINFORMATION- That deck was replaced by the applicant without applying for a permit and
variance. While work on the dwelling was done over the years by previous owners, the current property
owners/applicants claim they were unaware that it had been done without the required building permits or pre-CO
when they acquired the property. A Pre CO for the subject property was issued on January 10, 2022 indicating
Page 2, July 24, 2025
48024, Mebonia
SCTM No. 1000-52-2-17
violations for construction without permits by the previous owner which was prior to the applicants' purchase of the
property on 1/21/22 The prior owners were in foreclosure which now necessitates the applicant to obtain permits and
a new variance.
A Stop Work Order was issued by the Town's Ordinance Inspector on August 7, 2024 for violations which included
the deck construction, window and door replacement, and the installation of new electric service
Letters of support from neighbors were sent to the Board in support of approving the legalization of the "as built"
deck. No letters or testimony in opposition were received.
F1NlIsIOS O FAC I'R1 ASONS fOR BOARD ACTION:
The Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hearing on this application on July 10, 2025 at which time written and
oral evidence were presented. Based upon all testimony, documentatiom personal inspection of the property and
surrounding neighborhood,and other evidence, the Zoning Board finds the following facts to be true and relevant
and makes the following findings:
I. Town Law 267-b( )(b)(1). Grant of the variances will not produce an undesirable change in the character of
the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties. The parcel is on a corner lot surrounded by three roads and
having three front yards.CR 4 is a major,well-traveled road.Old Cove Boulevard is a Right of 'a and is partially
on the applicant's parcel (10 feet) along the rear yard, and Beverly Road, also a private 20 foot wide Right of Way
that is shared ley three other homes. The subject dwelling uses 10 feet of Old Cove Boulevard for their driveway and
parallel parking. One neighbor has their boat parked at the end of the right of way. The parcel has almost no useable
outdoor space and the previous owner built the elevated deck next to Beverly Road. All the lots in this neighborhood
pre-date zoning are pre-existing nova-conforming, There are other raised decks on nearby homes that have been built
to gain outdoor space on these small lots. Most properties have excessive lot coverage and small, non-conforming
setbacks. The neighborhood is going through change and the applicant has worked to clean up the property, for the
betterment of the neighborhood.
2. Town Law 267-b( )(b)(2). The benefit sought by the applicant cannot be achieved by some method, feasible
for the applicant to pursue,other than an area.variance. There is insufficient room on the subject parcel to construct
any deck addition without requiring variances.
3. Town Law 267-W)(b)( ). The variances granted herein are mathematically substantial, representing 96.50%
relief from the code for the secondary front yard setback, and 93.50% relief for the lot coverage. However, homes
on this street predate the adoption of the Zoning Code. The road frontage parcels were originally zoned commercial
(motel use), but are now zoned R-40 Residential,requiring 40,000 sq.ft.for lot creation. All the lots are substantially
less than one acre.
4. Town Law 267_b )(b)(4), No evidence has been submitted to suggest that a variance in this residential
community will have an adverse impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood. The
applicant must comply with Chapter 236 of the Town's Storm Water Management Code.
51 Town. Law §267-b( )(b)(5). The difficulty has been self-created. The applicant purchased the parcel after the
Zoning Code was in effect and it is presumed that the applicant had actual or constructive knowledge of the
Iimitations on the use of the parcel under the,Zoning Code in effect prior to or at the time of purchase.
6. Town Law 267-b. Grant of the requested relief is the minimum action necessary and adequate to enable the
applicant to enjoy the benefit of a rebuilt deck while preserving and protecting the character of the neighborhood and
the health, safety°and welfare of the community.
